Tommy Fleetwood needs to win this week

'Lest we forget' is a noble sentiment, but is the single most harmful phrase in the UK today. We cling so desperately to WWII and what we think it means about our country, when the world around us has changed so very much since then.

You can rightly deplore the venal charlatans who sold us this economic suicide, but I also now blame everyone in our political class, including those in government, who continue to bury their heads in the sand and insist we cannot reverse this most catastrophically stupid error. Shame on them all.

As people don't seem to like 'skeet' as a word to describe posts here, and given that the other place is no longer the bird site, I think we should appropriate 'tweet'.

@cwarzel.bsky.social Any chance you can get the Chasing Scratch guys on here instead of Xitter? There's next to no golf content on Bluesky?

If you think vaccines are bad, and you think China created covid, and you're in charge of healthcare for 350m people, and you and your colleagues in government are going to start a trade war with China, I'd love to know how you're going to deal with the next pandemic.
